2006 Cadillac DTS Luxury Package II

Description

Change was in the air at Cadillac in 2006 — even the venerable DeVille was gone, replaced by a much-improved DTS sedan. Available in three levels of luxury (Luxury I, II and III) plus a new Performance option, this new Cadillac has a long wheelbase of almost 116 inches, simultaneously creating a comfortable ride with a nimble feel. Cadillac’s outstanding Northstar 4.6-liter double-overhead cam 32-valve V8 aluminum engine with 275 horsepower drives an electronically controlled four-speed automatic transaxle. Laminated glass all around, unique door baffling, and even injected structural foam reduce noise and harshness.  Strong, silent, and smooth, the experts at MotorWeek were impressed: “Its sharper handling, refined drivetrain, and sportier styling, are clearly aimed at younger buyers. But its generous interior, full-up luxury and living room comfort are sure to keep long-term Cadillac lovers happy as well.” This highly-original three owner DTS is a California car with just over 60,000 miles, and best of all — it’s a Cadillac.
